$170,000 – $190,000 per year

TLDR

Lead the strategy and execution of Tinder’s notification features while collaborating across teams to enhance user engagement and retention for millions of users.

Our Mission   Launched in 2012, Tinder® revolutionized how people meet, growing from 1 match to one billion matches in just two years. This rapid growth demonstrates its ability to fulfill a fundamental human need: real connection. Today, the app has been downloaded over 630 million times, leading to over 97 billion matches, serving approximately 50 million users per month in 190 countries and 45+ languages - a scale unmatched by any other app in the category. In 2024, Tinder won four Effie Awards for its first-ever global brand campaign, “It Starts with a Swipe”™     Our Values Take the Lead We don't ghost our work or each other. Just as users don't leave their matches hanging, we don't let each other down. Move Fast We have a bias for action and urgency. Something that could be done tomorrow would be better if done today. Better Together We keep connection at the heart of dating and at the heart of how we work. Just as our users are better when they connect with others, so are we when we collaborate. Real Talk We say the hard thing the human way. Just as we ask our users to behave with kindness and candor in our community, we expect Team Tinder to do the same. Safety First We act with integrity, transparency, and consistency so people feel safe—whether they're swiping, matching, or working alongside us. Spark Fun We have fun to unlock creativity, fuel innovation, and help us build better experiences for daters. The Role We’re looking for a seasoned senior product manager to lead the strategy and execution of Tinder’s user-facing notification features and platform. You’ll work closely with engineering, analytics, marketing, and cross-functional partners to build smarter, more personalized messaging systems that drive key business metrics and help millions of users form real connections. You’ll own the end-to-end development of our channels, creator tools, user controls, and monitoring across push, email, SMS, and in-app.   You’ll be joining the Engagement team, which owns all user-facing notifications at Tinder. Our mission is to deliver the right message to the right user at the right time- driving real dating outcomes. We support a homegrown CRM platform, own lifecycle notification development, and oversee operations to send billions of notifications each quarter. Through advanced targeting and bold experimentation, we drive feature adoption, retention, and meaningful engagement. We move fast, learn constantly, and scale with purpose.   Where you’ll work: This is a hybrid role and requires in-office collaboration. This position is based in Los Angeles, CA.
